Chapter 1463: Chapter 1285: Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

"Are you really going to take me back to the Dragon Tooth Gang? It’s a long way from here, aren’t we going to rest first? Oh, come on, you’re just mad because I snatched your top performer. I’ll be more careful next time and won’t compete with you," the Flower-Picking Thief talked on and on without pause.

"Shut up!" Xia Dabao turned his head and scolded the Flower-Picking Thief, not using any exaggerated intonation, just his natural voice.

The moment the Flower-Picking Thief heard this, he chuckled: "Lady, you must be disguised as a man, right? To think a lady like yourself has such impressive martial arts skills. That kick just now hit me right in the core, it still hurts. Still, the fact that you would dress up as a man to guard me shows how important I am to you, so I won’t hold a grudge against you."

After the Flower-Picking Thief finished talking, Long Aixi took the rope from Xia Dabao’s hands and gave the thief a fierce tug, almost causing him to tumble over.

"Be quiet!" Long Aixi said, then tugging at Xia Dabao: "Dabao, stop paying attention to him, the more you do, the more smug he gets."

Xia Dabao then looked at Long Aixi and spoke: "When have I ever paid him any mind? Right now, I’m eager to get him back to the Dragon Tooth Gang for punishment. You know the rules of our gang, for a Flower-Picking Thief like him... heh heh... once we get back, he’ll be wishing for death, unable to live."

On hearing this, the Flower-Picking Thief finally became nervous: "Lady, what do you mean by wishing for death, unable to live?"

Xia Dabao turned back, glanced at a particular spot on him, and then showed a sinister smile: "Guess?"

After hearing that, the Flower-Picking Thief went pale: "Don’t tell me... are you going to castrate me?"

Xia Dabao then ignored him, just continuing to walk forward with Long Aixi.

Just as the Flower-Picking Thief said, they were currently in the west of the city and it was a long distance to the Dragon Tooth Gang. They hadn’t ridden horses when they left, so walking back might take until dawn to arrive.

Long Aixi didn’t mind walking until dawn, but he started to worry about Xia Dabao. After all, no one had slept that night, and catching the Flower-Picking Thief had taken most of the night. If they walked through the rest of the night, he feared it would be too much for her.

Fortunately, there was a sub-branch of the Dragon Tooth Gang ahead. Long Aixi convinced Xia Dabao to stop there for a rest, and he arranged for the head of the sub-branch to lock the Flower-Picking Thief up.

The night was deep, and although Long Aixi was the Young Master, there wasn’t enough time to prepare a separate room at this hour. He told the sub-branch head to not fuss about it, as one room would suffice for him and Xia Dabao to rest for half the night. After all, with Xia Dabao in disguise, it wouldn’t be an issue to share a room.

Exhausted from the night’s events, Xia Dabao fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow. Long Aixi watched over her for a while before tucking her in, and soon he too fell asleep.

Xia Dabao was sleeping soundly. At some point, she felt someone lift her up. Thinking it was Long Aixi, she mumbled drowsily, "Xiao’ai, go to sleep, quit fussing."

But if Xiao’ai was already sleeping, why would he come over to hold her?

With that thought, she opened her eyes, only to see the handsome face of the Flower-Picking Thief right before her. This...

Just when she was about to figure out whether this was a dream, the Flower-Picking Thief suddenly showed a sinister smile, and in a short while, she lost consciousness.

Before closing her eyes, she saw Long Aixi sleeping deeply to one side, utterly unaware of what was happening in the room.
